Profile:

Critics say that no one can handle the ball with that much ease as Habibul Bashar does. A real gifted talent that should have been showed up long before. His limited over debut was not pleasant at all (16 against Sri Lanka and 0 against Pakistan) in 1995. After that he had to face some adverse situations; a continuous in-and-out of the squad almost put him into despair until a swaggering 70 against Zimbabwe silenced his critics. He is the first half-centurion for his side in the lone test Bangladesh played against India. His tackling of quality fast bowlers was so graceful that it drew loud applause all over. Considered as the most talented batsman of his generation, Habibul Bashar handles fast bowl easier than to spin; the doubtless example is his 143 against West Indies in a three- day match and a half-century in the ODI facing the same team. The only weakness that Bashar has is to throw away his wicket when he is quite set in the wicket. If he could come out of this drawback, there are lots of things to watch about Bashar. He was seen comfortably tackling the seam attack of India in the maiden Test. In the first innings he made 71 to turn out to be the first half-centurion for Bangladesh. In the second innings he was on top among the Bangladeshis scoring 30. In April when Bangladesh toured Zimbabwe, Bashar and Javed Omar drew the attention of the opponent bowlers. Though the first ODI brought him a duck, he regained his form in the third one when he made 74. In the second Test he notched up consecutive half centuries (64 & 76). Even the renowned pacer Heath Streak told that they were really worried as long as Bashar had been staying in the crease.
